Inside the park
Safari company
Operating since 1996 and one of the two Green Safaris camps in the park, not a Time + Tide camp whatever some agent sites say. The private guide included with every booking is the real differentiator: you set your own schedule rather than sharing a vehicle. The Chifungulu Channel behind camp is the calmest canoeing water in the park.
Why you'd pick it
- A private guide and vehicle guaranteed with every booking
- Plunge pools at the suites
- The base for canoeing the sheltered Chifungulu Channel
What's here
- Swimming pool
Arranged from the lodge:
- Game drives
- Boat trips
- Guided walks
- Birding
- Fishing

What the park charges on top
The rate above buys you a bed. Lower Zambezi National Park charges its own entry fee for every day you are inside. Here is what that adds up to.
- Park entry$25 if you are with a licensed operator instead of self-driving.
- $30per person, per day
- VehicleUnder 3 tonnes, foreign registered.
- $15per vehicle, per day
Three nights means three days inside, so two adults sharing one vehicle pay $225 in park fees before anyone pays for a bed.
Camps inside the park bundle a bed-night levy and community fee on top, which together run $85 to $120 per person per night. That is the number that lands on your invoice, not the gate fee.

Indicative 2026 rates from operators' own rate cards, gathered July 2026. Always confirm with the lodge. Two things shift the real comparison here. First, camps inside the park add $85 to $120 per person per night in bundled park and conservation fees, and most quote that separately. Second, camps in the Chiawa game management area carry no national park entry fee at all unless you cross into the park, which is why a GMA bed can work out far cheaper than the headline rate suggests.
